It’s rare to find a pairing that so perfectly captures the soul of Irish whiskey. The Green Spot and Red Spot represent two ends of the same rich legacy, one youthful and orchard fresh, the other deeper, matured, and fruit laden. Bottled by Mitchell & Son, these Single Pot Still expressions reflect a time when wine merchants would age whiskey in their own bonded warehouses, using carefully selected barrels. Together, they tell a flavorful story of age, tradition, and craftsmanship.

Perfect For
Aficionados who want to experience Irish whiskey across a spectrum of age and complexity or collectors seeking two legends in one pairing.

Expert Notes
Green Spot is the entry point: youthful, vibrant, and crisp. Red Spot, aged 15 years, brings maturity, weight, and elegant spice.

Customer Reviews
“Green Spot is smooth and easy going; Red Spot hits deeper and stays longer.”
“A fantastic journey in one pairing, from bright orchard to rich dessert.”

Interesting Fact
Mitchell & Son used colored spots (green, yellow, red, blue) to mark casks by age and character, a practice dating back to the early 20th century.

Serving Suggestions
Green Spot is ideal neat or with a drop of water; also works well in refined whiskey sours. Red Spot deserves to be savored slowly, neat or over a single cube.

Distillery Background
Though bottled by Dublin’s Mitchell & Son, both expressions are distilled by Midleton, home to many of Ireland’s great whiskeys. The “Spot” series has become a benchmark for classic Irish Single Pot Still style.
